It’s been a rough, sleepless three days, but my first ever Ludum Dare jam submission is finally up. You can find it here.
In retrospect, I probably could’ve managed my sleep schedule a bit more efficiently. This was my first game jam, and easily the most complex game I have ever created, so I learned quite a lot of things just from working on this.
If I could do it all again, I’d probably go back in time and slap all the people that voted for Minimalism. It’s a very uninspiring, uncreative theme. We’re cranking out games in 3 days. I’m pretty sure the games would’ve been minimal with or without the theme. At worst, all it did was inspire a lot of un-games without any gameplay or graphics. :/
Still, I had an overall good experience. Special thanks to my other teammates, Tyler and Nathan for making this game awesome.
Unfortunately, with all the rush to complete the game, the poor, unloved potato easter egg fell to the wayside. I feel I have failed the Potato Challenge and failed as a french fry eater.
